Hmmm. There have been a few times within the last 24 hours when the archives for this page have disappeared either in part or entirely. (Hint: should you access this page and find only a paltry handful -- or less -- of archive entries rather than the full, lengthy spread of archive pages in all their horrifying splendor, that means they're evaporating again. That's the current sitch when I access the page.) This seems to happen now and then, and means I have to go tickle the archive template. Which I just did. With no response. I've submitted a suitably groveling inquiry to Blogger and will see what happens.
Oh, Blogger, you're normally so nice to me. Please be good. I promise I'll be your best friend.
